A colorful film from the fronts of World War II

Archival material presenting selected scenes from the battles on the Eastern, Western and Pacific fronts. See a colorful film from the fronts of WWII.

The film presents selected scenes from battles on various fronts of World War II. Unfortunately, the author of the compilation did not add any comments to it. So, I can only guess where the shots are generally coming from. In the first part of the film, we probably see fights on the Eastern Front, soldiers of the Wehrmacht and the Red Army. Later operations in the Pacific, Marines, landing boats and Japanese soldiers defending the islands. The end of the movie is the Western Front, probably the fighting in Normandy, we also see British soldiers.

Probably the WWII movie shown and the shots it contained were originally shot in black and white. Only today they have been colored. Unfortunately, these are only my assumptions, because I am not sure.
